Departments of the state government of New Jersey filed suit two days ago against Big Blue and a host of other firms, including several technology companies. The administrator of the NJ Spill Compensation Fund, and the commissioner of the NJ Department of Environmental Protection, filed the environmental suit against Lucent too. Other large multinationals named in the action include Exxon, Texaco, Shell, Ford, General Motors, Hoechst, Dow, Du Pont, Colgate Palmolive, Pfizer and Texaco. No from IBM was available to comment on the legal action at press time. ®
